[fa.info-vax] DEC Bourne Shell?

VMS users:  Is the package of "DEC Bourne Shell + 50 assorted utilities"
the same as "VNX", and if not, what is "VNX"?  Also, is anyone using
the make tool off of the Software Tools Group "goodies" tape?  (Or was
it sscs that they're experimenting with?)  Thanks!

I believe that VNX is the designation of the marketing group that sells
UNIX-like products including the DEC Shell, CMS, MMS, the various Ultrix's,
and (I believe) the C compiler.

Actually, VNX designates a certain set of UNIX-like products
for VMS.  At this time, those products include the DEC/Shell,
the C compiler, and MMS.   I am not sure whether CMS is technically
listed under the VNX group of products or not.  In any case, VNX
has nothing to do with Ultrix beyond the fact that they are both
product strategies aimed at selling UNIX tools.
